Explore the unspoiled beaches of Kyrenia. Perfect for water sports, these beaches offer many places where you can hire equipment to travel around the coast or go Scuba Diving.
Kyrenia also has mountains as a backdrop for the city, and in the winter these often become snowcapped, although short lived, if you time your trip right, you can scale the mountain in the snow.

Nicosia, or Lefkosia as it’s officially known, is a wonderful juxtaposition of modernity and traditional scenery, from its vibrant nightlife to gorgeous museums, this city has something for everyone.
Nicosia is the world's last divided capital. The barbed wire and guardtowers of the Green Line cuts the city in two, with the northern side being the capital of Northern Cyprus and the southern half being the capital of The Republic of Cyprus.
